Counselling services
At CalmCare Therapy, Laura offers compassionate and supportive counselling services tailored to individual needs. Our short-term approach focuses on helping clients navigate specific issues, such as grief, anxiety, and relationship challenges, by providing a safe space for exploration and healing.
The initial consultation lets us understand your unique circumstances and set personalised goals for your therapy journey. With a commitment to fostering emotional well-being, our counselling services aim to empower you to gain insight, develop coping strategies, and move forward with greater clarity and resilience.

Depression Counselling
At CalmCare Therapy, I understand that depression can feel overwhelming and isolating. My approach to depression counselling is compassionate, personalised, and supportive, providing you with a safe space to explore your feelings and challenges. Together, we will work through the underlying causes of your depression, helping you develop tools to manage symptoms, regain motivation, and reconnect with what matters to you. Healing is a journey, but small steps can lead to meaningful change with the right support.

At CalmCare Therapy, I offer a warm, understanding approach to anxiety counselling, recognising that anxiety can be exhausting and disruptive to daily life. I aim to create a supportive space where you can openly discuss your worries and fears without judgment. Together, we will explore the roots of your anxiety, identify triggers, and develop practical techniques to help you manage anxious thoughts and find a sense of calm. I’m here to help you regain control, build resilience, and guide you towards a more peaceful and confident life. Healing from anxiety is possible, and I’ll support you every step of the way.

Bereavement Counselling
At CalmCare Therapy, I provide compassionate support for those navigating the pain of grief. Losing a loved one is a deeply personal and often overwhelming experience, and everyone’s journey through grief is unique. In bereavement counselling, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express your emotions, memories, and struggles openly. Together, we will work through the waves of grief at your pace, helping you honour your loss while finding ways to move forward. Healing takes time, but with caring support, you can gradually rediscover hope and meaning in life.
